"Hey India, could you let me in?"
Jas turns to look at me and widens her eyes.
"Yeah give me one second!" I get up and walk over to the door unlocking it and opening up the door. I see Austin there smiling and I give him a big hug.
"Missed that smile."
"Aus it's been a day."
"Yeah, I know but that's not the point."
"Coming in?"
He walks in, takes his shoes off , chucks them in my room and runs off. I turn around to Jasmine and shrug my shoulders then i run out my room after him.
"Mrs. Romwey! Its Austin, just wanted to see how you are?"
My mum comes running out into the hallways.
"Austin!! I wondered who it was coming through the door." She gives him a hug and kiss on the forehead. "I'm making pizza tonight are you staying for some?"
"Awh sorry to scare you, should've hollered. And how could i ever say no to you? I love pizza."
I grab his wrist to try pull him away from my mum.
"Austin! My friend is upstairs come on!"
We both run upstairs and enter my room we both go and sit on my bed.
"So Austin this is Jasmine, Jasmine this is Austin. Sorry we took so long its like SOMEONE" I turn to Austin wide eyed, "has attachment issues to my mother."
"She is just a lovely woman, your just jealous I like her better than you."
"Yeah, yeah ok then Aus."
"So this is the Austin I've heard oh so much about?"
"She talks about me huh?" He turns to look at me with one eyebrow raised. Before i could say anything Jasmine says.
"Oh yeah, all the time couldn't have a conversation without you being in it."
"Is that so?"
"Oh shut up Jas, she's trying to wind me up by the way."
"Is it working?" She asks.
"No."
"Awwhhhh, dammit."
"So what do you guys wanna do?" I ask putting a hand on Austin's left shoulder and Jasmines right.
"Watch movie?" Jasmine suggests.
"Yeah but not a horror Aus will get scared."
"HEY NO I WONT!" He exclaims.
"Ok then Aus." I say wrapping and arm around his shoulder. "Its ok to be embarrassed sometimes."
"I'm not embarrassed."
Me and Jasmine giggle and I turn the TV on. Me and Austin lie down. He has his arm around my shoulder and I lie my head on his chest. Jasmine lies down next to me.
"Jesus I forgot how boring it is to third wheel." She moans.
"The other two people have to be in a relationship for you to third wheel." I say giving her a playful nudge on the shoulder.
"PLEEASSSSEEEEE can we watch G.I. blues?"
"Oh god babes, not that again." Jasmine sighs.
"Wait? Im confused whats G.I. blues and why is it bad?" Austin says confused looking down at me. I look up at him.
"Its an Elvis film and it is" I look at Jasmine with wide eyes. "NOT bad."
"I'm alright if it makes you happy." Austin says shrugging his shoulders.
"Oh would you two just shut up and shag already." Jasmine rolls her eyes and me and Austin laugh. I grab the remote and put on G.I. blues and I snuggle up to Austin.The whole film i sing along and enjoy myself but Austin and Jasmine look bored as hell. I ignore them and carry on singing and I look Austin in the eyes and smile at him he smiles back and my butterflies form in my stomach.
How could a person be so hot, like seriously. I just wanted to rip his clothes of right there and then, but then again i can't. We have become to close as friends and i cannot ruin this. What if he tries it on with me and i freak out again. But if I don't find a way to show him I like him we will be stuck as friends. I've only known him a week how can i be so sure I like him? Well, in his arms i feel so safe and looking into his eyes i get butterflies and looking at his lips i just want to kiss them.
The film finishes and I stand up.
"Best movie ever!"
"Yep." Jasmine rolls her eyes and yawns.
"Yeah, amazing." Austin says trying his hardest to sound convincingly happy.
"You guys are so boring, that was an amazing film." I moan slumping into a chair. "Its a classic!"
"India, it was ok the first time, but you have made me watch this so many times I don't even know how to convince myself its good."
"Jas! Im disappointed in you!"
Me and Jas laugh and Austin joins in.
IM SORRY NOT MUCH HAPPENED, I JUST WANTED TO GIVE AN INTRODUCTION TO JASMINE WHO WILL BECOME A VERY IMPORTANT LATER AND I JUST WANTED TO SHOW HOW CLOSE AUSTIN AND INDIA ARE AT THE POINT!!!!!
